Is It Just Me?



Recommended Posts

I'm 9 days post-op doing very well, but it just cracks me up that while I'm sitting here watching tv, there's nonstop food commercials on! What a way to feel left out :( Just figured I'd make you guys laugh :)

OMG - it does seem like every commercial is about food. I watched an Eggo commercial this morning and thought, "Wow, I wonder if I am every going to have an Eggo waffle again?!?!" I rarely have them ever!

So funny!! I'm 9 days post as well and was asking in chat if anyone else noticed it! It's like everything revolves around food! Forget watching the Hallmark channel! I'm an emotional roller coaster anyway and I'm crying,smiling,upset because of the movies right now then salivating because of the commercials!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
